F-15EX costs $94 million; lower flight hour cost

The flyaway cost of a Boeing F-15EX Eagle II fighter jet is approximately $94 million, including the EPAWSS system, as of today. This makes it more expensive than the F-35A. This price tag reflects the latest production lot and includes the EPAWSS, a crucial electronic warfare suite. The F-15EX is designed to replace older F-15C/D Eagles and has a lower flight hour cost than the F-35. While the F-15EX is costly, it is comparable to other high-end fighter jets. The F-15EX's airframe is designed for a 20,000-hour lifespan, significantly longer than many other modern fighters.
